A bundle of non-fiction reading passages for grades 5-8 about all six of the world’s land biomes: The tundra, taiga (boreal forest), temperate forests, grasslands, deserts, and rainforests. Each set of reading passages is also available individually. Click on the pictures to the left to see additional details about each of them.

The elements common to each individual product include:
Reading passages about the biome, including the important information about temperature, precipitation, and other environmental conditions that define the biome.
A mapping activity in which students use a world atlas (not included) to color the areas where the biome is location on a (provided) world map.

Two sets of questions: one for the reading passage about the biome, and one for the reading passage about the representative animal of that biome.
